I XPRES9 AND BAGGAGE jsta jcxraJB Cement and Plaster LOOK TO SEE THE MARKET STRENGTHEN In a circular sent out by the Grand Junction association the grower are advised that the car shortage Is the most serious In the history of the United States, and there Is no possi bility of relief In sight for the present Apple shipments are now cut down to about 10 cars per day, which Is the limit of the rolling stock obtain able. For the past week growers have been advised to hold their ap ples and the stock has been refused at the various platforms which are still loaded up. After stating that the apple situa tion Is not serious, and that the as sociation expects to realize satisfac tory prices on all varieties of good apples, the circular letter states: "We wish to urge all growers to furnish storage protection for all ap ples still on hand until the car short age can be relieved, and such storage must be frost-proof. It Is very evi dent that sufficient cars cannot be se cured during the next two weeks to move the balance of the crop and un less the growers take Immediate steps to provide necessary storage, consid erable loss may result. "The apple market In all consuming territory is in an unsatisfactory con dition, which, however, we believe to be only temporary and as soon as the large quantities of cheap bulk and bar rel stock from Kansas, Missouri, Ar kansas and other producing districts which are fairly flooding the markets, Is consumed, the demand for boxed stock will Improve."

M. 422.000 POUNDS OF . . BERRIES CANNED The Seattle P. I. says: - Senator W. H. Paulhamus, president of the Puyallup and Sumner Fruit Growers' Association, gave a lecture last night at the Y. M. C. A. on the question of marketing fruit at a profit The association has handled about 200,000 crates of berries this year. Its cannery, valued at $50,000, this year canned about 3,422,000 pounds of ber ries, which were all disposed of throughout the country. The associa tion Is used as a bank for the farmers. They bring their berries Into Puyallup and are given a receipt for them. They are then canned and shipped to the best market. The only expense to the farmer is the cost of shipping. One scheme of the association to stimulate the market is to regulate the price charged to the people. This Is accomplished by making a contract with the retail grocers in which the price to be charged is stipulated.
